Is there a way to run a task quickly in-line during the flow orchestration block? I'm currently using .run() to attempt to execute a PrefectSecret because it contains a dict that I need info from, and the secrets don't seem iterable on their own.

Yep! Like

task(lambda x: len(x))(input)

would work in the Flow block

so if I wanted to unpack a secret to reference in the flow, I just wrap it in task()?

Oh I see what you mean. No you can’t evaluate it like that using

task.run()

in the Flow block because that it was the Flow block is doing. For a dict you either need an intermediate task to unpack it or pass the whole dict to the subsequent task You might be able to do:

val1, va2 = task(lambda x: (x['val1'], x['val2']), nout=2)(input_Dict)

Okay, it'll probably have to be a whole task then because there's logic that picks a a keypair out of that secret dict
